BTW, why do unread messages not count? My usage pattern is to move
wrongly filed messages to the group in which they belong, because I'm
using adaptive scoring; so, I would like to do starting from my spambox:

1. mark ham message as unread
2. exit group, have it moved to an intermediary group
4. move (ideally by B r) message to correct group.

adding the unread mark to spam-ham-marks (in the spam group only) with:

(add-hook 'gnus-summary-prepared-hook
	  (lambda ()
	    (when (string-equal gnus-newsgroup-name
	    "nnml+private:spambox") ; that's my spam-split-group name.
	      (add-to-list (make-local-variable 'spam-spam-marks)
			   'gnus-expirable-mark)
	      (add-to-list (make-local-variable 'spam-ham-marks)
			   'gnus-unread-mark)
	      (setq spam-ham-marks (remove 'gnus-expirable-mark
	      spam-ham-marks)))))
              
works pretty well; although spam.el marks unread messages as read,
somehow. Could that have something to do with registering them as ham
when I exit the spam group?

Thanks,
